Thank you very much.
Thank you to all the witnesses for spending time with us here today and for sharing their wisdom and knowledge with us as we seek to develop a report around ideologically motivated violent extremism.
I'm going to start with Dr. Brisson-Boivin.
Thank you for the very important work that your organization MediaSmarts is undertaking.
I'm reading from a publication by your organization called “From Access to Engagement”. There's a great working definition, which I'm going to read into the record. It says, “Digital media literacy is the ability to critically, effectively and responsibly access, use, understand and engage with media of all kinds.”
To narrow it down a bit, this is a study about the rise of violent extremism. Your work is particularly with young people and to bring MediaSmarts into their lives. Perhaps you could tie those two together: your research and the rise of violent extremism in our communities.
